SkyBox – Maximum Energy Flexibility

The fully programmable 5kW SkyBox measures and monitors power to and from any connection point – utility, solar, battery, generator and load – to dynamically optimize energy production and consumption based on individual owners’ energy needs and profile. For owners not yet ready to install a battery-based system, SkyBox can be installed and commissioned without batteries today, and will easily accept batteries later, with no retro-fitting required.

Simplifying Battery-Based Installation

In addition to offering hybrid flexibility to end-users, SkyBox is also designed to take the complexity out of installing and commissioning a battery-based system. Compatible with a wide range of 48V battery chemistries, installers will benefit from the single-box design that eliminates the need for external charge controllers and communications equipment reducing installation time and cost. A high-voltage 400VDC bus supports larger array strings, eliminating the need for rooftop fuses and disconnects, further reducing cost and complexity.

Creating solar technologies that move us toward a better life and a better world

Panasonic has been pioneering solar power since the green revolution began. Starting with production of high efficiency amorphous cell technology in 1975, no one has spent more time on solar research and development. In 1997, our innovative HIT® solar panel introduced high-efficiency panels to the world.

When you install Panasonic high-efficiency HIT® solar panels, you’ll provide homeowners with one of the most efficient solar module available today. And with the full support of one of America’s most trusted brands, Panasonic installers confidently stand by their work with our industry leading 25-year product and performance warranty.

Since our founding in 1918 and through the 100 years since, adaptability and best-in-class quality drives us to serve you better. Developing innovative solar technologies across ever-changing business and social landscapes allows us to make your world a better place.
